Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm going to have to start carrying a reticule or something.

Thank you for the Sweeney Todd earworm.

(Oh sir! Ah miss!)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Home made breakfast burritos is a great idea. Thanks, Jessica. We usually just make them on the weekends, and/or for dinner.

DH got bagels on Sunday, so for this week I'm pretty set for breakfast, and for Franny's lunches. Speaking of! Franny goes on an overnight field trip this week to Catalina. My big girl!

I'm trying to figure out how to deal with a situation this morning that basically boils down to, "So nobody was paying attention to the presentation I gave on Thursday? Great."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The house sale is still on, and we're just having to eat the difference in the appraisal. It sucks, but there's basically nothing we can do.

So today, there's stuff I need to be doing, like chasing the guys who are making the repairs, and getting the realtor to answer questions. And I really, really just want to go back to bed.

Ugh, sounds like there's a whole lot of Monday going around.

We just made an emergency dental appointment for Franny as she has a tooth half out of her mouth and it needs to come out today. Arrgh. Which means I need to get my ass moving.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm sorry, Dana. That does suck.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

At least this means no more stressing about the house, and that's worth something if not monetarily. Still sucks, but real estate is like that.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I woke up to a small dog burrowing into the kitchen cabinets. This is not a good sign.

I hope it was Mr. Peabody at least?

Yes, at least it was my dog. My dog who has an unerring sense of smell when it comes to rodents, chipmunks and the like.
